Standalone Windows app?

Gordon
I've forced my family to use SGP for the past few years (with separate bookmarks incorporating unique stealth passwords) and this was working fine.

Unfortunately with the increasing browser restrictions (see google.com failure etc.) it's getting harder and harder to ensure they are using it correctly as it is a bit of a faff to use on many sites

The process is now often:

* Go to site
* Attempt to login login
* Click SGP bookmark *nothing happens*
* OK, open another browser tab
* Go to known OK safe site (bbc.co.uk etc.)
* Click SGP bookmark
* Type in [anything]
* Click "show/hide"
* Enter the target domain
* Enter the master password
* Click "show/hide" on the generated password field
* Copy the generated password
* Return to the original site
* Paste in password

Whew!  No wonder I've caught them using bad habits again recently, this isn't a very user-friendly process.

Could the algorithm in SGP be wrapped up in a small app launched from the system tray that just puts the PW in the clipboard following entry of domain and master PW?  OK, this would involve a manual paste into the target PW field in the browser, but is certainly more elegant than the above process and completely avoids any site/browser exploits.

Anyone up for giving it a shot?
